language problem after upgrade to 4.1.11

[thermax04]

set to Arabic as default with the option for users to switch to English, and had no problems at all with the same Arabic Language file and the same settings from 2.1.3 till 2.1.10, only problems started since upgrading to 4.1.11

You need a completely different file for 4.X than you used for 2.X. You'll need to upgrade your language.

sorry my mistake, i mean using the same file since 4.1.2 till 4.1.10

[thermax04]

Which Arabic Language file are you using now, Iam using Translate By Almuhajir v 4.1.10

hi

i used my own Arabic Language file ( I'm translated the original English file since 3.6 and update it with every version)

so, 2 different Language files with the same problem , which means the problem is not from the language files

Someone needs to open a ticket so we can look at the database itself. May well be a bug but need to determine how it is working before we report it.

You can look for this line:

function fetch_phrase($phrasename, $fieldname, $strreplace = '', $doquotes = true, $alllanguages = false, $languageid = false, $dobracevars = true)

And change it to this:

function fetch_phrase($phrasename, $fieldname, $strreplace = '', $doquotes = true, $alllanguages = false, $languageid = -2, $dobracevars = true)

I can't guarantee that will fix your issue. A complete fix looks like it is slated for 4.1.2.

hi wayne

in which file we must do this change?

[Wayne Luke]

A quick grep of the vBulletin files shows it to be in includes/functions_misc.php.

"-2" partly solves the problem. Activation email is sent in forum default language but welcome still in master language (languageid = -1)
I have reverted this function to ver 4.1.10

[baghdad4ever]

i do this change

but unfortunately the problem still

the redirect messages in English instead of Arabic

[Wayne Luke]

Unfortunately, you'll have to wait until a proper fix in 4.1.12 then. I don't know what the full fix is and only have the same information as you do from that JIRA issue.

A working fix, tested and working:

In file includes/functions_misc.php, around line 854, add the lines in red:

if (!empty($strreplace)) { if (strpos("$phrasename", $strreplace) === 0) { $phrasename = substr($phrasename, strlen($strreplace)); } } if ($languageid === false) { $languageid = LANGUAGEID; } $languageid = intval($languageid);

Also in file includes/functions.php line 3908, change -1 to false

* @param bool Force bypass of domain whitelist check * * @return none (the session is re-directed). */ function print_standard_redirect($redir_phrase, $isphrase = true, $forceredirect = false, $languageid = false, $bypasswhitelist = false) { if (!VB_API) {
